Hotel Fron - Reykjavik

We stayed here three nights on our short break in Iceland and found it to be clean and very centrally located for all the sights in Reykjavik.

I was quite taken with the artwork in the Reception area.

The Reception area was a decent size with comfortable seats where we could wait for taxis or mini buses for trips.

Our room was a kind of suite with a kitchenette, and a seating area but it was all a bit dated and tired looking although it was very clean.

The seats were not that comfortable and the TV was small and an old fashioned CRT model. Luckily a lot of Icelandic TV is in English so when we did watch it we could understand it.

As you can see the decor is a but tired but the room was pretty big. the view was dull and all we could see was a very small car park.

The beds were actually two singles pushed together made up as two singles which were more comfortable than they looked.

We had breakfast included and it was a simple buffet with Icelandic yogurt called skyr which I liked, some fresh fruit , breads and some cheese and cold meats. It was not the best breakfast we had ever had but it was far from being the worst. It gave us a good start to the day.
